Summer

We had a seriously busy summer.  It seems like we did so much! We traveled a lot, hung out with friends, went swimming, and started climbing again.  It was good.  Now we're back to school and work and "normal" life.

The hottest day of the summer so far - 113 degrees!

We just spent the hottest day so far at Big Surf!  It was a great day to be out on the water slides.  We stayed for a long time and had so much fun!

The wave pool.  This one's for you mom!

Zoe the fairy

Zoe at her nanny's house in April 2009!  What a teeny fairy!

Updated photostream

kmj.karen's photostream on Flickr.

I've finally uploaded our photos from the last 6 months onto Flickr! Check it out if you feel like looking at hundreds of pictures!

Otherwise I'll highlight some here in the next few weeks. :)

Zoe's birthday

Zoe will be 7 this year, in less than a month.  Seems like a long time and it seems like no time.

Here's a picture of her on her birthday.

Zoe's last day of 1st grade

Zoe will be 7 this summer and going on to 2nd grade already.  Here's a picture of her on the last day of school in first grade.  Her elementary school color is red, and everyone was supposed to wear red that day.  I didn't get her a school shirt this year, but I had one from MY elementary school!  So she wore that one.  Yeah Lewis-Palmer elementary!

Our house

 We bought a house at the end of April, and now we're pretty much settled.  A few things are still hanging around packed, but for the most part things are set up.  Here are a few pictures for those of you that don't live in AZ.

Camping!

To start off, camping!  We went camping on Memorial Day weekend with our awesome friends Mindy, Jamie, Aelyn, and Jo!  And of course Sierra the dog.  We went to Mancos State Park in southwestern CO and had a blast.  It was green there and cool, great camping weather.  

I'll be posting more pictures and stuff on the blog from now on.
